  • Page 11: Amplifier

    For best performance, voltage drops should not exceed 10% at 115V or 5% at 230V. The minimum electrical service amperage required by a K-array loudspeakers system is the sum of their maximum continuous RMS current. We recommend allowing an additional 30% above the minimum amperage to prevent peak voltage drops at the service entry.
